It is more convenient than banknotes and coins in that it can be stored on a C card. Therefore, in recent years, various technologies and devices for actually using the electronic money data as described above as a currency have been proposed.

[0003] On the other hand, since electronic money data has a value as currency like banknotes and coins, generation of electronic money data is severely restricted. For this reason, banks and the like need to store electronic money data as well as banknotes and coins, and the above-described electronic money safe has been proposed as a device for storing electronic money data.

As described above, since electronic money data can be moved via a communication network or the like,
As a usage form of the electronic money safe, an electronic money safe is installed at a bank center or the like, and electronic money data is transmitted from the electronic money safe to a terminal installed at a branch office nationwide via a communication network or the like. From personal IC
A usage form in which electronic money data is transferred to a card is assumed.

[0005]

However, as described above, since the electronic money data is electrical data,
There is a risk that the electronic money data will be lost due to the life of the storage medium for storing the electronic money data, an accident, or the like. Particularly, in the electronic money safe used in the above-described usage form, the amount of the stored electronic money is large. Therefore, the loss when electronic money data is lost due to an accident or the like is extremely large. On the other hand, making a backup of the electronic money data is equivalent to counterfeiting a currency, so it is not possible to make a backup of the electronic money data.

For this reason, it is conceivable to save electronic money data in a new storage medium before the end of the life of the storage medium. However, as described above, since the amount of stored electronic money is large, When the evacuation work of the electronic money data is performed, there is a problem that the original work of sending the electronic money data to the personal IC card is delayed.

The stored electronic money data may be an instruction to save the electronic money module to an electronic money module associated with a detector other than the detector that has detected the above-mentioned sign among the plurality of detectors.

That is, the electronic money data saved from the electronic money module in which the sign of the abnormality is detected may be saved in a save destination provided in the electronic money safe.
It may be evacuated to an evacuation destination set outside the electronic money safe. For example, when an earthquake or the like occurs, it is desirable to output electronic money data to a geographically distant save destination outside the electronic money safe. Further, for example, when one electronic money module of a plurality of electronic money modules has reached the end of its life, the electronic money data is evacuated to another electronic money module that has not reached the end of its life. It is desirable to maintain the work of

[0012] The electronic money safe of the present invention may further comprise a first display for indicating that the sign is detected by the detector.
